Maka tersebarlah kabar di antara saudara-saudara itu, bahwa murid itu tidak akan mati. Tetapi Yesus tidak mengatakan kepada Petrus, bahwa murid itu tidak akan mati, melainkan: "Jikalau Aku menghendaki supaya ia tinggal hidup sampai Aku datang, itu bukan urusanmu."
Semenjak itu masyhurlah perkataan ini di antara segala saudara: Bahwa murid itu tiada mati kelak; tetapi bukan demikian sabda Yesus, bahwa murid itu tiada akan mati, melainkan: Jikalau Kukehendaki orang ini tinggal sehingga Aku datang, apakah kena-mengena dengan engkau?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then went this saying abroad among the brethren,.... It not being rightly understood by some one or more of the disciples present: it was divulged with a wrong sense annexed to it among other persons; who, though not of the eleven, yet were followers of Christ, children of God, that belonged to the same family, and were, in a spiritual relation, brethren to each other, and to the apostles:
that that disciple should not die; but should remain till the second coming of Christ, and be found among them that shall be then alive, and be changed. And such a notion not only was among the ancients; but Beza, in his notes on this text, tells us of a strolling wicked fellow, that gave out that he was the Apostle John; and was encouraged by some, particularly Postellus, a Sorbonic doctor, but was afterwards burnt at Tholouse.
Yet Jesus said not unto him he shall not die, but if I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? These are the words of John himself, the disciple spoken of, who gives a true and just account of Christ's words, freeing them from the false sense that was put upon them; which shows his ingenuous disposition, his integrity and love of truth; being unwilling that such an error should obtain among the disciples, and pass in the world for truth.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Then went this saying ... - This mistake arose very naturally:
- From the words of Jesus, which might be easily misunderstood to mean that he should not die; and,
- It was probably confirmed when it was seen that John survived all the other apostles, had escaped all the dangers of persecution, and was leading a peaceful life at Ephesus. This mistake John deemed it proper to correct before he died, and has thus left on record what Jesus said and what he meant.
